Planet Dearth-- A Persistent Alternate Reality Game
This MQP is a persistent alternate reality game. Alternate reality games are innovative games played across a variety of media in real time with the intention of immersing the player. Persistent alternate reality games are ones in which any player may start playing at any point in time. We wrote an original story, adapted it to the sequential style of the game, and created puzzles through which the game is played. When the game was fully-playable, we recruited playtesters and had them test the game. Finally, it was released to the public

Grafton State Hospital: Supporting Human and Animal Health Care
In 20th century, society's approach to addressing the mental health concerns was to confine patients at regional State Hospitals. Grafton State Hospital is an example of the application of technology and engineering in early 1900's to construct facilities that addressed society's needs about 75 years. Today, many of these same facilities support animal education, research and clinical care activities. This project explores the technological and engineering basis of these facilities and reveals the repurposing of these historic structures to provide modern veterinary education, research and health care. An interactive media kiosk was developed and implemented.
